I grew up in the southern baptist tradition. For 18+ years of my life I was a devout Christian. As my belief began to unravel around me, my mental health went right along with it.
The doubt somewhat overtook my life. I was performing poorly at work, destroying relationships, and found it almost impossible to sleep.
Eventually my physical health took a turn, and I knew I had to be honest with myself about it all. On a random day, while walking on the Beltline in Atlanta, i just sort of blurted out "I don't believe in this anymore and I'm afraid I'm going to go to hell"
It was the greatest sigh of relief I had ever experienced. It's something I still wrestle with on an almost daily basis. Much love to anyone going through a similar struggle.
lyrics
I remember being a boy
And wondering what I'd be
And I would talk to God
But god don't talk to me
Not anymore
And maybe he got tired
Of all my shit
And maybe I grew up
And he gave me the slip
And I guess I'm just lost
I don't know if I'll be found
And maybe I'm just lying
To try and stick around
Amazing grace
How sweet the sound
Well that sounded good to me
But you ain't around
Not anymore
And maybe you got tired
Of all my shit
And maybe I grew up
And you gave me the slip
And I guess I'm just lost
I don't know if I'll be found
And maybe I'm just lying
To try and stick around
